South Korea's antitrust regulator alleged on Wednesday that Alphabet's Google abused its dominant position in the Android app marketplace to hinder competition and will recommend corrective measures and a financial penalty.
The Korea Fair Trade Commission's (KFTC) Market Surveillance Bureau found Google's alleged abuse of market dominance in the Android app marketplace affected 14.16 trillion won ($9.1 billion) in revenue, the bureau said in a media briefing where it released its examiner's report on the matter.
